OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

And at the rate the quality of the fifth inning announcer is declining, BC will be a candidate in 8-10 years.

We've been figuring 1-2, depending on Judd's tenure.

I figure BC rates behind Kathy and Judy and slightly ahead of the corpses of Eddie Schwartz and Uncle Bobby.

I can't handle Santo's groans and moans and doddering-old-man bit anymore. It's tiresome, it's irritating, it's not illuminating (a good call that goes against the Cubs is as protested as a legit bad call), and I'm burned out.

I know Mike D. agrees to some extent, but I'm also at the point where I'll listen to the opposing team on my phone instead of listening to Santo. In fact, that's maybe what I'll do for the weekend series. Scully for the first 3 innings followed by Charley Steiner and great American (and former Cub) Rick Monday sounds a lot better than Santo's sad sack bit along with 8 innings of Hughes and 1 inning of Bob Sirrott's nephew.

Scully is so good he makes sitting in LA traffic tolerable. fans want to show up in the 3rd and leave in the 7th.

I am not normally one to make such statements, but I'm better than Judd Sirott.

Ironically, that's exactly what Andy said to me at Kitty O'Shea's this year.

I'm a big time Ron apologist, and I think Pat does a good enough job at describing a game of baseball by himself to cover for both sides of the booth, which he often has to do.  Still, Ron has been in Extra Grumpy mode all year long.  It was during the first week of the season when Pat told him "Ronnie, remember pack your blood pressure medication for the rest of the season -- for both you AND me".  He may have meant to include "ear plugs" as well.  Right now, it seems as if Ron simply does not enjoy being at the game.

Vin Scully is my favorite call in the business.  I always look forward to his broadcasts.  Hands down, the best in the game.

Meh, Skully talks too much and never lets his partner get a word in.
